12:07 am
country's forces according to one libyan militia commander a team of americans is already in the country looking for recruits a major obstacle in their way a vastly divided society there isn't an army and libya now and the army is not going to be because whenever you try and get militias which have a legion says to a variety of rays of things that the national interest so they have allegiance to a drive or to a sect or to a religion rather than having allegiance to the nation or to the country you cannot build an army but with training and aid fully via the u.s. we have more pragmatic goals then uniting the army you were just teaching them the best way to fight this war training initially because he really about it not so much about you know teaching people how to use rifles and how to use new equipment it's all about really more about indoctrination make up any age one of the children the u.s.

americas for instance which is trained all the the armies that became the torturers of latin america that started after world war two i would say the training troops is especially in the middle east in the case of iraq or in afghanistan something of a catastrophe it's premised on a fantasy that if the u.s. buys the uniforms gives them the guns provides in the training that somehow these will be reliable forces you can see in the case of afghanistan the governments are united the governments are partners but the afghan troops don't consider the americans to be their friends in fact they consider them to be cultural aliens who are occupying their country more than fifty coalition troops were killed this year alone by members of the afghan security forces or it is out that the obama administration wants to leave around ten thousand troops in afghanistan to continue to train afghan forces and carry out special operations after twenty four teeth when according to the obama administration american forces are supposed to have completely left the country the afghan government has less than two years to agree
12:10 am
or reject the idea the u.s. government may be looking at training armies abroad is a smart investment sort of like outsourcing makes sense in business it's cheaper than having u.s. troops on the ground no need to explain dead troops coming home makes sense from a lot of perspectives but that strategy has backfired more than once in the past eliminating populations that didn't want to see their military become a student of washington's wars in washington i'm gonna check out and knowing you just coming away to sign on president obama's government so they can say about the potential dangers to the country's security and. to get more financial support for his ambitious drug problem. and also later they were running away able stary seen seems to be driving not only protests on to the street but also a greater amount of not very honest people into the supermarkets and all that later this hour. an issue free

like the shea casing they cut price deals are always popular but in the midst of a recession little marching the pennies is proving more important than ever that's why it was. but is not only moms that go to iceland but also apparently this too is that the supermarket chains been so blighted by things that they've been forced to step up their security measures to disability and it's good such as speedy as an alcohol that is shoplifted and say carry the extra security but now it seems food products all also being targeted in iceland and perhaps somewhat bizarre really it's their land that's attracting thieves there thing this extra hefty security casing. fired this is just. stunning.
